I should get out more

Went to see Jim's Big Ego at the Lizard Lounge with kareila and shoebox_bird. Jen asked me around five this afternoon if I'd like to join them & not having anything better to do I said "sure". I'd seen the band once before --- at the Somerville Theater, at something Moxy Fruvous was also playing at, and remembered I liked them.

I had a really good time. The opening act were ok. (Actually, they were probably pretty good, if you like rap: I don't like rap, but enjoyed them anyway.) But Jim's Big Ego was a blast. The band's energetic, the lyrics clever, and they give a great show. I also liked the venue --- the Lizard Lounge is small and reasonably well ventilated as bars go --- I noticed cigarette smoke, but it was a minor bother, not a major annoyance. (When's Cambridge going to get around to banning smoking in clubs, anyway?)

Anyway, I had a good time and got a useful reminder that I need to get out more.
